Ashley J. Richter

I provide thorough assessments, candid advice, and compassionate advocacy. I treat my clients like they are family. I work tirelessly to ensure questions are answered timely, concerns are effectively addressed, and my client and I have set a strategy together to achieve their goals. I understand that there are several considerations that need to be taken into account when deciding how to pursue your case. From my upbringing with a rural, working class family to building my own law firm, I can relate with clients from all walks of life. From complex litigation inside the courtroom to meticulous negotiations and document preparation, my work is respected and enjoy guiding clients through the legal system and their options during some of the most difficult times in their lives. The greatest compliment is knowing I have achieved a client's goals with repeat referrals from past clients and fellow colleagues. I have been named as a Super Lawyers Rising Star since 2018 in the area of family law, a distinction reserved for the top 2.5% of attorneys in the State of Wisconsin in each practice area. I am frequently asked by other attorneys and the court to act as guardian ad litem in complex family cases and presented to other lawyers on a range of topics from handling divorce cases, evidence and trial practice, and acting as a guardian ad litem.
